About David Yurman
David Yurman is one of America's most celebrated fine jewelry and watch designers, founded in 1980 by sculptor David Yurman and his wife Sybil in New York City, where the brand remains headquartered today. Yurman's signature cable motif — a twisted rope design inspired by his background in sculpture and his wife's background in painting — became one of the most instantly recognized design signatures in American fine jewelry history, appearing across bracelets, rings, necklaces, and the brand's distinctive watch collection as a unifying visual thread that connects every piece to the Yurman aesthetic. The Cable watch collection, to which this T-17302 reference belongs, represents the fullest expression of Yurman's design philosophy: the cable bracelet is not merely a strap but the structural and visual foundation of the entire watch, integrating case and bangle into a single unified jewel that is worn as a bracelet first and a timepiece second. David Yurman watches featuring mother of pearl dials, diamond bezels, and 18K gold cases on sterling silver cable bangles are among the most collectible and sought-after references in the brand's catalog, appreciated by collectors for their design purity, their mixed precious metal construction, and their signature combination of fine Swiss watchmaking with American studio jewelry aesthetics.

Design and Construction
The 18K yellow gold cushion-shaped case presents a clean, rounded-square profile at 20mm, its perimeter set with a complete halo of round brilliant diamonds that frames the mother of pearl dial with continuous sparkle. The mother of pearl dial is warm and luminous, with gold Roman numerals at the four cardinal positions and gold dot minute markers completing the dial layout — topped by the David Yurman "DY" monogram logo at 12 o'clock. The blue sapphire cabochon crown at 3 o'clock adds a signature Yurman detail that has become a brand identifier across the entire watch collection. The integrated sterling silver twisted rope cable bangle features Yurman's iconic double-cable construction with polished 18K yellow gold cap connectors at each lug end, creating the seamless visual transition from bracelet to case that defines the Cable watch silhouette. At 67 grams the combined gold and silver construction gives the piece substantial, confident weight on the wrist. See less
